Influence of the quality and quantity of blood ingested on reproductive parameters and life-span in Triatoma infestans (Klug)
(Elsevier Science, 2011-08)
In Triatominae, female fecundity and fertility may be affected by age, adult nutritional status (i.e., blood meal source and amount of blood ingested) and number of matings. Triatoma infestans (Klug) is the main vector of ...
Dynamics of feeding and defecation behavior of Triatoma infestans hybrids
(Springer, 2020-09)
Triatoma platensis is occasionally found coexisting with Triatoma infestans in chicken coops in Argentina. Some authors have reported the presence of hybrid specimens of both species in chicken coops and other peridomestic ...
Hepatic gluconeogenesis in rats trained to eat a single meal daily. Role of eating periodicity and the amount of food ingested in the last meal
(2001-12-01)
Rats trained to eat a single daily meal (MF rats), from 8:00-10:00 a.m., increased food intake from the 1 st to the 12 th (125%) day of feeding training. In this work we compared the influence of the higher food ingestion ...

Brasiliensin: A novel intestinal thrombin inhibitor from Triatoma brasiliensis (Hemiptera : Reduviidae) with an important role in blood intake
(Elsevier B.V., 2007-10-01)
Every hematophagous invertebrate studied to date produces at least one inhibitor of coagulation. Among these, thrombin inhibitors have most frequently been isolated. in order to study the thrombin inhibitor from Triatoma ...
Molecular detection of the blood meal source of sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in a transmission area of American cutaneous leishmaniasis, Parana State, Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-03-01)
The feeding behavior of sand flies provides valuable information about the vector/host interactions and elucidates the epidemiological patterns of American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) transmission. The aim of this study ...
Depression of rumen ammonia and blood urea by quebracho tannin-containing supplements fed after high-nitrogen diets with no evidence of self-regulation of tannin intake by sheep
(Elsevier Science, 2012-06)
The aim of this study was to assess whether sheep enhance nitrogen use in response to tannin supplementation, and if they increase preference for tannin-rich supplements when consuming diets high in rumen-degradable protein. ...
